You’ll have to sell your firstborn to fill it up.

You get what you pay for with RVs. They arent built to be lived in for more than a few days.

A son has nice 32’ Class A & loves it. His IT firm (he is top R&D guy) now has all employees working from “home” and he is taking his young kids across the USA.

RV people say most RV’ers aren’t worried about gas prices, their income can handle it.

Son is looking for 38 footer next.....they love it.

Of course, if gas goes to $10/gal that all may change.

Good luck finding a spot to rent. Around here they are booked more than a year in advance.

People are buying RVs to live in because they can no longer afford houses.

I wonder how many are going to used as a residence in some manner or another? Bet that’s a part of this.

People would be smart to avoid buying a home in the next few years. Going mobile might be a great way to reconnoiter around the country to see where to settle.

There could also be opportunities in "lease-back" operations like airplanes; buy it and lease it back to a rental company.

"Goin' Mobile"
by The Who

I'm goin' home
And when I wanna go home
I'm goin' mobile
Well, I'm gonna find a home
And we'll see how it feels
Goin' mobile
Keep me movin'

I can pull up by the curb
I can make it on the road
Goin' mobile
I can stop in any street
And talk with people that we meet
Goin' mobile
Keep me movin'

Out in the woods
Or in the city
It's all the same to me
When I'm drivin' free, the world's my home
When I'm mobile

Hee, hoo!
beep beep!

Play the tape machine
Make the toast and tea
When I'm mobile
Well I can lay in bed
With only highway ahead
When I'm mobile
Keep me movin'

Keep me movin'
Over 50
Keep me groovin'
Just a hippie gypsy

Come on move now
Movin'
Keep me movin', yeah

Keep me movin', groovin', groovin', yeah
Movin', Yeah
Mobile, mobile, mobile, mobile, ...

I don't care about pollution
I'm an air-conditioned gypsy
That's my solution
Watch the police and the tax man miss me
I'm mobile
Oooooh, yeah, hee!

Mobile, mobile, mobile yeah

Lot cheaper than current home prices. At least where we are.

My wife and I and our 3 big dogs have been living in a 32 foot travel trailer since last September while our home is being built in NW Montana. With a few modifications we made it through the winter OK. We had a crooked contractor and had to take over the build ourselves. Its been a challenge but we shall overcome!

Travel Nurses often use an RV to go to their assignments on the cheap and bank the per diem.

Elkhart/Goshen area RV companies are starting to reduce production. Some are working 4 days/week. Some down to three.

The ugly truth is that the dealers can’t service them. Bought a new Sprinter by Keystone from a dealer in Calera AL last May. I have two warranty items outstanding waiting on parts and currently on a trip...ac isn’t cooling...new problem. Appt 4/7 to take it in...they will “diagnose” the problem and submit to Keystone for approval...then order parts. Total BS bureaucracy. Have a month long trip planned for May and its looking like it won’t happen. DON’T buy a new rv if you have a working rv.

I’d rather get a truck camper or a Class B. Something that’s small but still roomy. I’m not a rock star, I don’t need a big ass bus or Class C.

Like most things in life, itโ€™s a matter of priorities. RV life provides mobility, Independence and adventure. But, that comes at a price.
As does all choices in life. It is wise to consider others advice. But ultimately, choose what works for you and your priorities and pleasures in life.

My wife and I lived full-time in our bumper-pull trailer for several years. We lived in New Mexico in winter and further north in summer.

An RV requires endless maintenance when pulling it great distances. You are driving your “house” many miles and the effect is like a constant earthquake on the entire structure and components.

There are two kinds of RV’s...those that leak and those that WILL leak.

In terms of cold weather, you are living in a “house” with very thin walls and it is expensive to heat. Your water hose has to be heated in cold weather or it will freeze solid.

If you extend an awning from you RV, you may find it torn off by unexpected winds if you leave on an excursion.

When RV-ing, you must carry a large assortment of tools and by handy with them. You are plumber, electrician, mechanic and carpenter when you least expect it.

Warranty? We were once staying near Yellowstone when a new motor home had a motor failure of one of two motors on its large slide-out. It was virtually brand new. The nearest warranty service was 400 miles away. If the owners drove to the “Camping World” service department, they may have waited weeks for repairs. What are you supposed to do while you wait.?

Another very serious problem in America right now is this:

PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR MANY REPAIRS.

Many RVs in our town are parked in driveways with extension cords to the house.
